bob o'donnell is governing. and in new mexico and governing indiana. they have the ball. that is good. they are the kind of conservatives and in policy in political terms. that will focus on john boehner and maybe they do a little bit negotiating with president obama if he wins. and the governors become central to the party in terms of actual policies and politics as they become the model of how you succeed including many states where they will be governing many states that romney will have lost and new mexico and new jersey and virginia and really central and hard in washington to remind ourselves they are more important than what happens in leadership in the house and senate. one tiny caveat, even if romney loses i am not certain about that. the intellectual campaign point, i think people are underestimating the conflict that can still happen. it could be a six point victory for obama if he keeps it open. if he gets 53-47 it is possible. it is not out of the question. i don't think republicans fill the house. they're wildly confident and democrats get back. you start lo
